Abstract
For an arbitrary, time-dependent, homogeneous flow, an expression is obtained for the stress tensor describing the behavior of a dilute solution of macromolecules idealized as elastic dumbbells with Brownian motion. The result is given in terms of the relaxation modulus from linear viscoelasticity. The general relaxation modulus found for an arbitrary, nonlinear, elastic dumbbell is specialized to that for a finitely extendible nonlinear elastic (FENE) dumbbell. Good agreement is found when the result is compared with Warner's numerical calculations for the FENE dumbbell.
